I am David. We started a clothing company to help my wife who suffers from EMF sensitivities after cancer treatments. (radiation) I am autistic and learned how to sew to make her clothing so that she can go into the city. I have found that EMF fabrics also work wonders for Autistic people like myself, so I am trying to learn how to make custom clothing for the company that we just tried to start.

I am looking to meet people that can help me use this software so I can make a blue jeans pattern, with some custom additions.
It is great to meet you all, and I look forward to make sewing conversations!
Really!!?? Wow, thank you so much. This start-up has pressed our disabilities to their max. We need as much help as we can get here. Thank you so much. From 1 Empath to another, thank you! How do I send an image?
I think you need to be on the forum for a day or so before you’re able to have full use of the tools and you may be limited to a certian number of words in the 1st few texts, but at the top of the text box, there are a number of tools…
The one I’ve put a red square around is the one that you can upload images & files:
I’ve installed a small program on my laptop, called Lightshot, that I use to take screenshots & then I just copy & paste the image in the chat.
Thank you so much Grace. Feeling a little burnt out these days, just trying to learn new systems is a task! I am currently reading a pattern making book online and I will make sure to spend a few hours a day here, until I can figure this all out.
The best part is I’m 1000 percent passionate about this all!
Take your time and take it one step at a time. If you’re already reading the book, start making your measurements file in SeamlyMe (when you get to that section). And when you get to creating a pattern, normally the basic bodice, make it in Seamly2D. Each line of instruction… one at a time. That way, you’ll be reading and doing. It’s how I learnt pattern making.
